Summary
He moved the blade down farther still, applying much more pressure this time. He could feel his heart in his throat and hear the pulsing of it in his ears. It was a very human reaction, one stemming from fear and self-preservation... a normal response that seemed would never be beaten out of him. He did not connect with these emotions. He felt no fear. He felt no danger. In this moment his mind and his body were separate— his flesh yielded to his humanity, while his brain demanded that this indulgent and unnatural desire be satiated.
Who was Towa to deny himself?

Summary
"Tomorrow Daiba-san would meet Ariake’s eye over breakfast and Ariake would smile back at him, asking if he slept well. He would have no idea what had transpired a mere wall across from him, and with any luck, he’d never find out. The persona he had diligently crafted with his own hands was so sound that no one would even entertain the thought that Ariake had been doing anything unsavory during the night, or that his thoughts about the austere Daiba-san were anything but friendly.
The thrill of the chase… like a spider pulling its captured prey slowly closer in its web. The prey could struggle and thrash or simply lie there and resign itself to fate, and he would be the victor either way.
It felt good."

Summary
"It had been a lifetime since he had last felt this feeling. Ever since he had been sent back into his younger and weaker self, that anger had persisted. The feeling of being slighted had kept its hands wrapped around his throat. But these pipe dreams of violence, the ones that kept him up at night, had died with the first emperor of the cultivation realm. The void he had filled with these fantasies left him gaping and bleeding and he was desperate to feel whole again. The object of his desire was under him, lying dead and still. He would never move again. He would never be able to reject his advances again. And with those eyes closed, the ones that saw and admonished everything, he could almost imagine that his shizun loved him the way he had pleaded for, for all the many years they spent together.
He had to own him, one last time."

Summary
"Destiny was a cruel and uncaring mistress. Surely Hanazawa was predestined for hell, or else he never would've met Tamamori. He never would've had the chance to go this profoundly astray, and for the otherness to evolve in such a grotesque mutation."
A piece exploring Hachihachirou's evolution through the stages of his life and grappling with expectations beyond which he can fulfill.

Summary
"Kawase wondered if he would ever be more than just a feral dog- a creature that yearned for connection and doted dutifully after the person it loved, never letting anyone close. The thought resurfaced every time he watched Tamamori and Minakami walk together under the same umbrella. It recurred every time he woke up to an empty house. With every drag of a cigarette, with every manuscript he destroyed, and with every terrible, selfish emotion that kindled deep inside him.
He wondered."
A short introspective piece on the contradictory existence of Ikeda Eiichi.

Summary
Oosaki’s eyes trace Ariake’s silhouette backlit by the bedroom window, roving over his sleek hair and slightly sloping shoulders. How many times had Oosaki sat where Ariake is sitting now and thought about dying? It seems strange that the space should look or feel any different simply because Ariake is there. He wonders if the room will ever be the same to him now, knowing what it looks like with the other man in it.

Summary
“Bathe him and bring him to my chambers,” he had told the maids and eunuchs when they entered the cell. “Burn those clothes.” The ones he wore were threadbare and as filthy as the rest of him. Luo Binghe’s lips curled into a cruel smile. “My wives have plenty to spare, he may borrow some.
